The very last step before install should have the path to the configuration file. You have to continue through the wizard until that point.

There is no such way. Look at my screen. I've tried two times, and two times I've installed sql server :/ After Database Engine Configuration it starts install process. Maybe express edition is the issue ?

I will ask different way: When I install sql server from wizard, is there ConfigurationFile created anyway? I've installed sql server EXPRESS from begin to the end, and cannot find any configuration file on my desktop :/

I took a look -- yes, there is. If you go into the install location, do a search for ConfigurationFile.ini.

I did, actually I have a path to the ConfigurationFile.ini in log when installation ends. There is dir, but no ConfigurationFile.ini... I search my whole C: for ConfigurationFile.ini - no such a file (I have ConfigurationFile.ini for uninstall action... but no for install)
